xceler8 Phase 2
Attached, please find an updated version of the xceler8 Graphic (thanks Joey). The team is entering into Phase 2 of the definition of xceler8 and has opted to focus on technology that our customers will need to support eBusiness with their customers. To that end the following was added to the xceler8 architecture:
- Mobile: Web | eCommerce | Forums -- We opted to make Mobile a separate spoke with a dedicated focus around integration, SSO, interface and analytics.
- Advanced Search: Solr Lucene -- We have added advanced search as a spoke in the wheel. The aim is to enable cross platform search with results much like you would get when searching your Mac (for those of you who don't know what I mean -- come over from the dark side!). Search results across Forums, Websites, eCommerce is the initial aim.
- Value Add Modules -- We added a host of items that we like to include with our eBusiness programs.
- Live Chat
- Event Tracking
- Comparison Shopping
- Market Places
- Pay Per Click
- Social Sharing
The technology, message and opportunities are definitely starting to build momentum!
